I got a hp pavilion 15 e070sl laptop with windows 8.
I left installed windows 8, disabled secure boot, fast boot and finally
installed ubuntu gnome but boot used to freeze every time.
I decided to reinsall, i selected "Delete Ubuntu 13.10 and reinstall"
On reboot i got the same problem;
I tried to install again but this time i selected "Other Methods"
I then noticed that the previous instal process deleted EVERYTHING from the
hard disk, EVERTYTHING.
I lost a lot of work, so, please fix this bug so that others won't get
those problems...

Hi Ivan,
I'm sorry your installation went bad.
I have a suggestion regarding your data. You can try and get it back
using programs like foremost (that basically tries to undelete your
data) with any Live CD Linux distribution.
Regards,
Ant?nio Pinto

It's a shame you lost your data. I recently convinced a friend with
Windows 8 on a Lenovo Think Pad to switch to Ubuntu, and the same thing
happened to him. The only sure-fire way to avoid the problem is to have
good backups.
This bug is an embarrassing one, though, because it can hurt confidence
in the OS itself.
